CPRS • RPRS • Veteran‑informed peer support

Real‑world peer support for tough seasons of life.

I help veterans, couples, and individuals navigate PTSD, addiction, grief, relationship conflict, and major life stress. Most insurance accepted, including Medicaid. Veterans may be seen through VA Community Care with direct billing to the VA once authorization is in place.

Peer support services

As a Certified Peer Recovery Specialist (CPRS) and Registered Peer Recovery Specialist (RPRS), I offer lived‑experience‑based support alongside your existing providers—not instead of them. Sessions can stand alone or work in partnership with therapy, psychiatry, or primary care.

Veterans & military families

Peer support around:

PTSD & moral injury Transition stress Isolation & anger

We can coordinate with VA providers and explore VA Community Care when appropriate so the VA is billed directly once authorization is in place.

Couples & families

Peer‑informed coaching for:

Communication breakdown Trust after addiction Parenting stress

I help you slow down reactivity, name patterns, and build practical daily habits that move relationships in a healthier direction.

Addiction, grief & suicide risk

Support for people facing:

Alcohol & drug use Relapse risk Bereavement & loss Thoughts of suicide

Together we build a safety‑first plan, connect you to higher levels of care when needed, and work on daily, realistic next steps.

Who I help

  • Veterans and active‑duty servicemembers
  • Spouses / partners living with PTSD or addiction in the home
  • Singles navigating divorce, grief, or major life transition
  • People in recovery from alcohol or drug use (or considering it)
  • Adults managing anxiety, depression, or burnout who want practical support from someone who’s been there

I accept most commercial insurance plans and Medicaid, and I offer self‑pay options for those without coverage. We verify benefits up front so there are no surprises.

For Veterans using VA Community Care

  1. Talk with your VA provider about a Community Care consult.
  2. Ask your VA Community Care / Community Care specialist to contact my office.
  3. Once authorization is in place, I bill the VA directly for approved visits.

New clients should start with the call‑back request form so we can confirm your VA or insurance options before scheduling.
